If you haven't read any of my other posts, I just bought a bunch of fish on Sunday and found out 2 days ago they have ich. I'm treating the tank with heat and salt, but someone on here told me my comet goldfish may not do so well in the heat.
I think I agree with her as he developed some ich spots today. I'm going to put him in the QT tank, but what should I do to treat the ich. Salt? or just come medication or something?
Thanks for the input! I'm watching these guys carefully trying to get this under control before they all perish. I raised the temp as quickly as I could without trying to stress them too much, (but ich will as well im sure) Have more bubbles, and so far I've been adding the 1 Tbsp per 10 gallons. I have corycats so I'm not sure if putting more salt will put them at risk like I've read. I do have a hydrometer on it's way so I can keep track of the salinity. Cause with all these water changes it's getting hard to keep track of what's in there..
